Cypher2, thanks for taking the time to file this bug report and help us
make Ubuntu better.

The nmbd.conf you pasted here is not the current one from natty.

The current one has this as its start condition:

start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE!=lo)

This means it will be started when any interface *except* lo is
configured. Since nmbd is only used for announcing your address to other
computers, this makes at least some sense in that it will start nmbd
when a real network interface is available.

I'm not sure I understand then what it is you want to change. Can you
please explain what you expect to happen, and what actually happens?

Thanks!

Marking Incomplete pending response.
